THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS, JULY 19, 1826. [THE MORNING CHRONICLE.] Our readers will find, under the head Mansion ' house, an account of a case, in which the Lord Mayor had the, proud satisfaction of rescuing an honest, in, dustrious, young Irishwoman, against whom at one time appearances were certainly strong, from the ruin almost always attendant on the commitment of poor persons in this country. We envy the feelings with which his Lordship must have returned to the bosom of his family after this triumph in the cause of hu manity, so worthy of the Chief Magistrate of the ca pital of a free country. What a revolution has been . effeeted in opinion respecting the duties of Magis trates, in the proceedings previous to commitment, in the space of two or three short years. The practice used to be to commit on depositions, as a matter of course, the Magistrate throwing the responsibility of deciding on the evidence on the grand and petit Jury. With the maxim constantly . in his mouth, that in Eng land no man could he punished but after the verdict, of his Peers, the Magistrate used to subject poor crea tures to a most grievous punishment, tearing them from their families, and the huffiness by which they supported those families, consigning them, without compunction, to the tedious imprisonment which preceded trial. many . cases, the slightest care bestowed in exa mining -into the particulars of the evidence for the charge, and in hearing the statement of the person accused, would have shown the unfounded nature of the accusation ; but this was then deemed an encroach ing on the functions of the Jury, to whom it properly belonged to iudge of evidence. It required the pos session of only a very moderate share of sagacity to be sensible that the very circumstance. of postponing the examination. into the evidence of a case till after the ruin of the party accused, necessarily encourages the bringing for Ward wanton and unfounded accusations, because, whatever the final result, passion and malice are at all events gratified by the intermediate proceed ings. If Mr. Burgess, of Reigate, who committed John Franks, bad taken one thousandth part of the pains bestowed by the Lord Mayor on this case of Shehan, if he had examined Mr.,l(enrick's servants, if.he had examined Franks, and sent for his wife and children; confronting the parties, he . would have seen in an instant , the absurdity of the accusation ; but, unfortunately, he had • adopted the nation then com monly entertained by English magistrates, that they were bound' to commit As a inatter of course, on receiving positive depositions, without demanding . explanations or entering on inquiries calculated to elicit elucidation. Thank God, ,this odious practice is now reprobated in the' metropolis, at least where we have the gratification of, hearing Magistrates dwell on the importance of examining carefully into all theyarticulars of a case, to 'save' innocent persons from the horrible consequences_ of commitment. We trust' that the County Magis trates have partaken of the general improvement; and that they attach more importance than they formerly did to the proceedings previous to commitment. But however ; that may be, the study of .the case of the Mansion-house. might he safely recommended to them, us a caution against rash Proceedings. If this poor woman, Shehan, had been committed, she must neces sarily have associated iu prison with depraved charac ters, her little savings would have been expended in conducting her defence, and even acquittal might not have coin' Lately destroyed the. presittrupti(m against her resulting'trom the commitment, because there is always sowne uncertainty whether management of the prose cutor or .evidence may not have contributed to the acquittal. No doubt poor people have riot the facili ties of getting rid of formidable witnesses possessed by Governors of Colonies, or other rich persons under accusation ; but the arts of management are not un known even to them. An acquittal, therefore, in the first stage of the proceedings, nbt.only saves the per son charged from the dreadful cOnsequences residt ing from„commitment, but ivis, a hundred times more flattering to die individual than an escape from the throwing out a Bill, or an acquittal from the verdict Of a Jury. [TUE bfORNING HERALD.] It would seem, by the accounts from Manchester as well as other places, that emissaries are actively en gaged in working upon the distresses of the manufac turers, with a view of converting their present miseries into what would render them in a tenfold degree greater—riot or commotion. We can imagine nothing more base and tletestible than this. It is in vain now to be looking after the causes of the re-action which the manufacturing districts are undergoing. The world, we believe, is now pretty well agreed about them, and that this very term re-action embraces them all. The remedy is now of more importance than the cause ; and it is to this that the efforts of every public writer should be directed. Much as private benevo hue& has already done, and will, we trust, continue to do, in alleviation of individual misfortune, it is quite clear that the disease is of too deep and complicated a nature to yield to mere mitigation. Two great objects should be kept in view, the relief of immediate pressing calamity, and the directing of labour into newchannels. It is quite clear that to go on manufacturing that with which the markets are already glutted is only , to increase the evil ; nor would it in the end be one iota less mischievous, were it possible to feed and to maintain the great mass of our manufactur ing population idleness. To feed the hungry and to clothe the naked are the first dictates of reason, of humanity, and religion ; mid, next to the supply of food to meet the most pressing wants of na ture, we do not know of any more laudable way in which private benevolence could be employed, than in dealing out clothing to the lower classes wherever it is wanting, which would go farther even than any export trade to diminish the immense stock of cotton goods now on hand. But after all, employment is the one thing needful. Laudable as public andprivate charity i s , we should be sorry to see our labounng population depending upon it for support. It is by an abuse of the Poor Laws in this respect that the independent spirit of the people has been in so many instances broken down. Are there not useful public works in which multitudes of people might be employed, and i n the promotion of which the public money might be well bestowed ? Might not rivers be made navigable, new road constructed, moutains cut through, and prole would, made n available, all of which various other pro would, in the e»d, benefit and enrich the co . mmunity onr nobility, who, like the late Is there no man among Duke of Bridgewater, will immortalise his name by opening a w id e c h a nnel for u emplymen!. an r, 4 for enter rate, tne overnment prises such as these? At any m o t di rect i ts glot i o to web objects. In the mean time, we would earnestly implore such ©f our suffering artisans as these observations may reach, to be upon their guard against those incendiaries who would betray them into excesses which can only in' crease their own immediate misery, and with it the means of diminishing it. [THE REPRESENTATIVE.] We perceive by some of Mr. Brougham's country papers, that' hi. party are comforting themselves with the reflection, that though they were beaten, the contest was very expensive to their opponents; and are quite delighted with the length of sundry tavern hills, and divers ale-house charges. It is quite deli cious to see how minds of the same elms exhibit the same sort of delicate and gentleman-like feeling every where. Cobbett, beaten at Preston, though not so decidedly as Mr. Brougham in Westmorland, consoles himself with the expences to which - he has driven Mr, Stanley and Mr. Wood ; Hunt, the blacking-man, chuckles at the inroad he must have made into the parses of Sir T. Lethbridge and Mr. Dickinson ; and here we have their fellow-labourer in the " good old cause" equally delighted, because his final ejectment from the county, the representation of which has been the silly ambition of his life, has been expensive to the Lowthers. Of course it is perfectly understood as a piece of regular tactique, that the expences are to be at least trebled in the statement put forth by his friends ; and that the eye of his scribes, " in a fine phrensy rolling," should wander with a thirsty delight over non-existing " scores," and revel in the creation of visionary tapsters. Yet, after all, it is something that they admit these bills to be paid—for we believe that some of Mr. Brougham's " Yeomen of the Mouth," would willingly be enabled to make such an admission on their side of the question. As to the blue looks at Lowther castle, which we perceive are commemorated in a Morning Paper of yesterday, we cannot pretend to see quite so far North, and therefore recommend the amateurs of such physiognomies to cast an eye into Brookes's when the word " Subscrip tion" is hinted at. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE.— Woolfe Lee was yesterday brought before the Lord Mayor, for a second examination, charged with having committed an oftiflace under the Act, called "Jonathan Wild's Act." Mr. Fossick, whose shop was robbed of umbrellas and other articles, attended, and stated, in answer to some questions put to him by the Lord Mayor, as follows ;—The prisoner called on , me, and said he could get me part of the property stolen from me. I did not pay him any money upoit the occasion; but I said, I was willing to do so, upon the recovery of the property and the prosecution of the thieves. He said that all that might be done, and he asked me for some property like that which had been sto len frorn 1143. We let him have an umbrella, as a pattern, but we never saw him or the umbrella since till now. Lee—l am ready to give up the umbrella, which I took merely to assist me in the investigation.--(A laugh.) The LOUD Mayon observed to the City Solicitor, who at tended upon the occasion, that this yule, he apprehended, did not come within the meaning of the Act, as Mr. Fossick had given no money.. The - City Sacitor was of the same opinion. Mr. Fossick further stated, that he was present when the pri soner spoke to Mr. Prior, the silversmith, who had been rebbed subsequently. Lee said to Mr. Prior that the stolen property was at three different places; and that, if he was sufficiently remu nerated, he would produce it. The Loan Msvoa—What did he say wOuld be a sufficient re muntration?---Mr. Fossick. He said he would be satisfied with 60/. ; to which Mr. Prior replied, that if the property was re stored and the parties brought to justice, he should willingly give that sum. Lee said, upon receiving that assurance, that he thought there would he no difficulty in finding the parties, and bringing them to justice. • The Loan KCVO% called upon Ccnyton_ the o!iicer ! to whom the prisoner had gone to tnake enquiries about the robberies, to state the whole of the transaction hefote the City Solicitor. Cowton then said; that Lee had applied to him, .representing himself as a person in the Secretary of State's Office, and obtained from hinuu sovereign and a half-crown, under pretence of enabling himself to recover the property stolen from Mr. Fossici and from Mr. Prior. Mr. Fossick—He told us that he could search for stolen goods without a search-warrant ; and that he was: far above all other laugh:) • Lee-1 ant willing to return the sovereign which I borrowed of Coviton. He understood the business. He lent it to me. Ile was, in fact, to have his expences paid,. and half of the reward. The Loan' MAT on—ls that the • case ?—cowton replied, that it certainly was the case. The Loan MAYOK adtnitted that Lee . hail managed the ease with a 'great deal of ingenuity. • '• .• is nothing against me whatever.—(A laugh.) The Conductor of the Bow-street Patrol stated, that the pri mover had passed liiinselfoff as an officer of that 'Establishnient. The street-keeper at Islinpon stated, that upon one occardon Lee produced a start and sand, " lam Lee, of liattOn;larden, and I demand your assistance in dragging along this woman," alluding to a woman whom-he had searched. Lee upon that occasion, on finding that there was no stolen property, about the woman, said the thing *as unimportant, and let her laugh.) Lee—lf Mr. Bishop was here, he would give me the very beat of characters. The Lona) MAYOR to the prisoner—Are you Lee of Hatton garden ?—Lee : Yes; 14 years ago t was sworn in at Hatton garden.—(A laugh.) The Loan MAYOR—WM, acljourn the ease till Saturday. Lee..-Not till Saturday—that is my Sabbath ; let it be Friday. But you have no charge against me. The LORD find that we have quite enough against you..—The case was then remanded till Friday. Two women were charged with having robbed a gentleman named Lane of three 61. notes of the Ipswich Bank. The prosecutor, in walking through Bishopegate-street on Sa turday night, was addressed by Brown, who took him by the arm and asked him very kindly to take a walk with her. He disen gaged himself, and Brown walked away, but he felt a " rumble" in hie trouser's pocket, and, upon putting his hands in, he covered that his note* were gone. • 'He immediately turned round, and saw her talking to a Captain of a ship. The Captain stated, that Brown, 'when she addressed him, said, " I remember, -Sir, having seen you before ; and I am sorry for the robbery, I xornmitted upon you some years ago." She had scarcely said the words, when Mr. Lane came up and accused her. The Loan MAYOL—And were you robbed by her? The Captain.—Etactly six years ago I was robbed by her of a 101. note, on the very spot where I met her on the night of this robbery. I did not prosecute her on account of the trouble and and annoyance ; and I never saw her since until Saturday night. The two prisoners denied that they knew any thing about the notes. The officers said that they were two of the most desperate thieves. Nothing was too hot or too heavy - for them. They bad stolen hundreds of pounds out of gentlemen's pockets. She was then fully committed. BOW-STREET....-Stine time ago, Mr. J. Dickson, a gen tleman connected with the Vigo Bay Company, was brought before the Magistrates of this Office, charged, on the infor mation of Mr. William Taylor, of Craven-street, Strand, with intending to commit a brow') of the peace, by fighting a duel with informant's brother, John Sydney Taylor, Esq., a bar rister, living in Garden-court, Temple. It then appeared that Mr. Dickson hail some reason to suppose that Mr. John Taylor was the writer of several articles which appeared in the Morning Herald a short time previously, reflecting on the con duct of the individuals connected with the Vigo &y Project' 144 e Wove Particularly upon the character of himself (Mr. Dickson). Th latter g en tl enum h a Vi ng b een , as it was stated, unable to ob tain un explatiatieri 'from Mr. Taylor, lie applied offe nsive terms to him, and, in consequence, each appointed a friend to ar- Mr. Dickson, a nd Mr. 'Murphy', range An immediate meeting. Mr. Steele, as the frien d of ou behalf of Mr. Ta y lor, met aIX a Saturday mornin g , and arranged that a mee tin g The should parties m e t, b i g i n theuld take pl ace at two o ' clock on the same d ay , at Norwood. urn) interim Mr. William Taylor ha vin g by some mean s it was to take place, ga ve informa- tion here, arid ascertained. , gam after th e y t ad dR t h the tkeu, the gratin u ! officer made hie appar an • ee) ,ntlittd LIMO 1444 blolht thew be- fore a Magistrate, who held the principals to bail. Immediately' upon the arrest, a proposition was made that they should meet as soon as possible at Calais, which proposition Mr. Steele under stood to be acceded to on both sides. On the next day, however, after the examination had taken place atthis office, Mr. Steele re ceived an intimation from Mr. Murphy, that Mr. Taylor hail de parted upon circuit, and that he had desired him to say, that after what had passed on Saturday, he (Mr. Taylor) should decline meeting Mr. Dickson under any circumstances. Mr. Ifau.s.—As soon as Mr. Taylor returns from his profes sional labours on the circuit,. I shall certainly feel it my duty to place him in the same situation as Mr. Dickson. I take this op portunity to remark, that gentlemen seem to entertain a very mis taken notion; that after entering into recognizances to keep the p eace here, they are at liberty to cross the Channel, and fight in another country. But I can assure them that it matters not whe ther the parties go to Calais or Pekin ; their recognizances are equally liable to be forfeited, on their committing a breach of the peat.* with any of his Majesty's subjects ; and I do not know— though the practice has been common -...whether the proprietors of newspapers, who publish correspondence of this description, do not render themselves amenable. I have the highest possible re spect for 'the liberty of the press, and should be sorry to see that liberty abused.—The parties then left the office. We were informed that yesterday morning Mr. Murphy wrote to Mr. Steele, informing Una, that he had just received a letter from Mr. Taylor, in which the latter expressed himself willing to meet Mr. Dickson at Calais. A meeting now, however, is of course out of the question. MARYLEBONE.—Art grey, espee dressed tabl r e-loo , k in in a dark g indivrik olive coatdualalmta 40 years of age, scone ulia with black velvet collar, shoes, and silk stocking% and rather robust in person, and who gave his name Wm. Saunderson, was put to the bar, charged with inciting Wrn. Henry Waite, a young man about 20 years of age, to commit a crime. The complainant stated that he had charged the prisoner for an assault, but he having made an apology for the insult, he was anxious to withdraw the charge. Mr. ilosicnis insisted on hearing th e ease. William H. Waite being sworn, said his father lived near the New-road. He was returning home on Monday night at a quarter past eleven o'clock. He was walking along Oxford -street, and Ong along. Between Castle-street and observed the prisonertreetthe also prisoner came up to him and said it wag a fine night. He (the prisoner) then crossed him, and taking hold of his hand, squeezed it; upon which witness pulled his hand away. He walked away, and the prisoner followed him, and re peated the same different times. When he reached the corner of Margaret-street and Princes -street, Cavendish-square, the prisoner took him by the arm, at which he (Waite) became indignant, and knocked him down, called the watch, and gave him into custody. The witness Was a slender young man, and of genteel appearance. Mr. Hosiwis asked the prisoner what he had to say to the charge? Saunderson said he was walking, as usual in the street, and having come into conversation with the witness by accident, he talked of the coolness of the evening. He denied the imputed as sault. Neither did he hold his arm, nor touch him in any im proper manner. He hail respectable connections, and would not be guilty of such impropriety. Mr. HOSKINS said the indelicate outrage had been proved, and the prisoner should find bail to answer the charge.- At three o'clock the prisoner was again put to the bar. Mr. Houma—Do you still persist in refusing to give your dame and address ? It is necessary to inform you, that we cannot accept bail until we kuow who you are, that we may be able to fix the amount suitable to your rank in life.—l cannot (hesitat ing), indeed I cannot—it is impossible. I must first see some of my Family. Here the prisoner placed his hands over his eyes and appeared quite dejected. Riwi.nriox directed that his person should be searched, to take from him any instrument that should be capable of doing him any harm. The Gaoler said the prisoner would be taken care of, and would be kept out of the reach of the other prisoners. Mr. Ilivrta?now desired that every inquiry should be made to find out who the prisoner was. It was obvious that Saunderson was not his real name. The committal was then made out, and the prisoner was re moved, in default of bail, to the New Prison, Clerkenwell. Be fore he was removed, he acknowledged that he had a wife and family. He took some refreshment in the course of the day. HATTONGARDEN.—On Monday a young woman named Mary Griffiths, accompanied by her sister, a Mr.. Everitt, whose husband holds some subordinate situation in the East India House, presented themselves before A. S. LAINu, Esq., and requested a warrant. The accused is a respectable solicitor, bolding Chambers in the New Inn, but residing In Holborn. The complainant, who is about twenty years of age, informed the Magistrate that she came to get a warrant against her master. The complainant then stated that she lived as servant in the family of the gentleman against ,whom she had now to prefer this charge. On the evening of Sunday,. the 2d inst., her mistress and the other inmates of the house went out after tea, and there was no person left at home but complainant and her master, who was in the back parlour, which latterly had been converted into an office. Having occasion to go into this apartment, her muter called her to the further end, and getting between her and the door, he took liberties with her. 'She screamed loudly, but, as he was well aware that no person was within hearing, he did not desist. Overpowered with his violence, she swooned. The complainant having gone thus far with her statement, Mr. LAINCI said that the girl's story appeared so very doubtful, he should merely grant a common assault warrant. which would be sufficient to compel the, attendance of the ac cuse d, en d t h e h ear ., ing was fixed fur twelve o'clock yesterday. Thi examination was taken in private, and every means were adopted to prevent his name getting publicity. The reporters, and all persons not actually connected with the case being excluded. Thi s much, however, transpired. The complainant's testimony exhibited a very great discrepancy in some of the most important points, as compared with the story she told on Monday. It also came out that she had been under warning from her mistress at the time, and that her conduct altogether was very exceptionable. Mr. Lawn observed, that the charge appeared to be very un deserving of credit ; anti when he granted the warrant he was de cidedly of the same opinion. The girl had prevaricated so much he could not believe her. The complaint was therefore dismissed. The complainant and her sister then withdrew, evidently much mortified by the result. We are glad to hear that the new Sheriffs, with the view of alleviating the distresses to which defendants in civil actions have been heretofore exposed, have resolied rigorously to adopt the following regulation :---That a printed paper, contain ing a statement of all fees to which persons are exposed on arrest, shall be placed in all the rooms of the officers keeping lock-up houses ; and that officers, or their servants, on being detected in taking sums beyond such legal charges, shall be immediately sus pended. Further, that no persons shall be employed to make sales bia such as are, thoroughly respectable; and a portion of the fees arising from such sales shall for the future be appropriated for the relief of the wives and children of the unfortunate defendants, or for providing a fund for the liberation and relief of poor pri loners. The adoption of these regulations willreflect the highest credit on the new Sheriffs. CON vutstoN.—lt has been asked,.why has not the Protestant religion nude the same way in Ireland that it has dune in England, Scotland, 1 1 / 4 c. There are two modes of conversion.— the sword and the gospel. The first was. Mahumet's killed all who would not conform. The second was that of Christ. In converting by force, all minor persecutions are inef feettuil, and increase the belief they are •intended to discourage. The sword itself can only subjugate the external will, it is the gospel which vitally influences it. We have been carrying on , with respect to the Irish Catholics, a contest, which may be illustrated by a fable. The Sun and the North Wind disputed which should strip a traveller of his cloak ; Boreas rageil, and attempted, by a violent blast, to strip it from the traveller's shoulders —this caused the traveller but to wrap it more closely about his. shoulders. The Sun, in turn, put forth his genial beams --the travelles threw aside his mantle, and received the rays of light and heat hlta hie bosoms Ott Sunday last Isaac Gaskill, bone -setter and a a s m a l farmer, of B o lt on -b y - t h e -S an d s , did penance for the crime of ince s t i n t h e par i s h c h urc h o f that place. A s the punishment i s not very common , we matter of curiosity to some of our readers, a copy of the " form of penance" upon such occasions : " Whereas, -• I, good people, forgetting my duty to Almighty Clod, have committed the detestable sin of incest, by contracting marriage, or rather the show or effigy of marriage, with Mary Ann Taylor, the sister of in late wife, and thereby have justly provoked the heavy wrath of God against me, tai the great danger of my own soul,' and the evil exaMple of other,' ; I do earnestly repent, and 1 am heartily sorry for the same, de s i r i ng Almighty God, for the mer i ts of Jesus Ch r i st , t o f org i ve me both this and all other offences, and also hereafter so to gimlet me with hi s Holy.

'From the Londot New Price Current of Tuexday, July la.) _ Cm-row.-The demand for Cotton last week was moderate, about 550 bales having been sold for export at the previous rates; the sales were as follow :-480 Surats, 40. ordinary to 531, good ; 40 Bengals, sd. a bid. good fair ; 10 Boweds, in bond. The inquiries for Cotton yesterday and this forenoon appear nearly suspended ; no sales were reported. The Cotten used for home-manufacture for the last 6 months is nearly one third less than preceding years; the best-informed and the capi talists are of opinion that the use of Cotton goods will be greatly affected by silks; the competition of the English, the French, and East India, producing its natural consequences, prices exceedingly low, which will promote the consumption of silk goods to a great extent. At a late hour the inquiries revived; Surate sold 4jd. a 50., 80 Bengals, qd. a sd. ; 60 Pernams, 10(1. a 1 Nal. Sucaa.-The demand for fine Sugars and for very low quali ties was considerable last week ; both descriptions sold rather higher, but the sales were not extensive, as the buyers only pur chased for their immediate wants, as they anticipated large sup plies of new Muecovades this morning ; the only Sugars that hung heavily on the market, and could be purchased cheap, were those from 525. a 565. This morning the show of new MUSCOVidet not so extensive as what had been generall anticipated : the deli veries last week were nearly the same as the corresponding period of last year. The buyers being disappointed in the show of Su-, gars, evinced no inclination to purchase, except for their immediate wants ; there was little alteration in the prices by private contract;; the estimated sales by private contract were about 800 casks. Matt ritius Sugar, 3421 bags, the whole went off freely, the grey sn 4 brown ls. lower ; the yellow, suitable for grocery, fully supported the previous prices.-St. Lucia, 100 hhds. 26 brls. sold 525. a 555. a shade lower.-Java, 214. baskets, 245. a 321. rather lower.-- Barbadoes, 121 bhda., 595. a '7os., also at a small decline. At the close of the market to-day, Sugars at public sales were sa.. Is. lower. The shippers did not purchase Refined for export last week, though the prices have fallen 4s. and is., nearly in pro portion to the withdrawing of the bounty, which places them ill the same situation which they were inpreviously to the sth inst. I Lumps, then 795. and 80s., were last week offered at 745. ; the , only purchasers were the wholesale grocers for the home consump tion of the country ; they bought considerable parcels at a decline of about 21. per cwt.-Molasses were 255. a 2 ts. 6d. ; some good Dominic,* Molasses sold 275. The wholesale grocers continued their purchases for the home consumption of the country this morning, but not on an extensive scale; the prices were little va ried; Lumps dull at 744.-Molasses fell to 245. I n Foreign Sugars there was no material alteration to notice last week; some good white Havannah Sugar sold 38s. and 40s. Corrine.-Than public sales of last week went off heavily ; 111 descriptions of British Plantation sold about 2s. lower; the Foreign were without variation ; fine ordinary Brazil sold 455. it 455. 6d. ; good ordinary Jamaica, 481. to 51s. ; tine ordinary, 535. to 565. ; good ordinary Dutch, 48s. There was only one public sale of Coffee this forenoon, 342 bags Mocha good ordivarYi but very much mixed with black beans, 65c-shove one-ba?l sold. By private contract there are no purchases reported; it as indeed rumoured, that 2,000 bags St. Domi ngo h a ve been d i e posed of, for money, several shillings below the market prices; but the report is not believed. Russ, BRANDY, amen 1101.1.1N05,--There were extensive I ° - quirks after Rum last week, on account of the reported failure ci the Spring Corn Crop, and the probable rise in the prices °f English Spirits; but the purchases actually made were by na means extensive.
